We will have to move our two bunnies onto our balcony, which is plenty big by the way. 11m x 1.5m.
No I don`t want them to roam around the whole balcony but they could easily get a space of 4mx 1.5m or even a little more if they want to have more space.
This is a 9th floor flat we are residing at.
The balcony wall is high enough not worry about them jumping over it.
Now the plan is to build a proper enclosure for them with fly netting all around it. In summer we get once in a while mosquitos finding their way up to the 9th. And occasionally a fly too. The whole of the balcony is protected already by a bird netting to prevent pigeons landing on the railing. Winter are not very cold her, usually on average around 5-8 degree Celsius. One of my main concerns is the hight of the whole enclosure, don`t want to make it too high but we should still be able to clean it. Secondly what kind of floor would you recommend? Right now it`s painted concrete but I feel like it should be something more natural, like a nice wood or a proper grass lawn, which would make it easier to clean. Rabbit poo a pee would be taken care of more naturally by using proper grass. Oh and the balcony is well protected against rain too.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
